The word democracy is from 2 Greek words demos and kratos (Demos =people and kratos = power or rule) and together they form democracy is two Greek words because Greek/ Athens formed democracy but women, slaves and poor people can’t vote .we are aloud freedom of speech and equal rights and right to justice with democracy some countries like Saudi Arabia and Qatar are an absolute monarchy, dictatorship is another form of government north Korea and Zimbabwe are run by dictatorship.

I understand how I got forgotten because more than half people who were slave’s women and poor people probably thought it was far from fair so it got forgotten and different ways of running government. Although I find it fair that now we do have a voting system which is democracy but so not everyone has to go to parliament we have representatives and we vote for their party.
